The area around Skipton.
Skipton calls itself the gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, with a well-preserved castle, a canal basin and a market that runs most days of the week. It is prosperous, draws plenty of visitors and is increasingly popular with commuters to Leeds. Stone cottages and terraces need careful upkeep, and many customers live in the villages up the dales. A business should look professional, show local reviews and name the villages it serves, since the rural area around the town is where much of the work is.
Just over the council boundary, Silsden (5 miles), Earby (6 miles), Barnoldswick (8 miles) and Keighley (8 miles) are close by. Further out, Bingley (11 miles) and Nelson (12 miles) are within commuting distance. It is worth saying plainly which of these you travel to, so people further out know whether to call.
Embsay, Carleton, Gargrave, Cononley, Stirton, Thorlby and Broughton: if you work in particular parts of Skipton, those names belong on the site.
Skipton (postcode area BD) sits about 233 miles north of Exeter.
